lynda.com now has practice environments in 11 of their most popular web courses in the lynda.com online training library including JavaScript Essential Training, HTML Essential Training, CSS: Frameworks and Grids, jQuery Essential Training, JavaScript for Web Designers with plans to include this feature in 74 courses soon.

The Practice Environment is a browser-based code editor anyone can use to follow along with web design and front-end developer courses, enriching the traditional exercise files into an interactive coding experience. It removes friction and anxiety for anyone who is new to learning how to code and it enables members to move away from passively watching videos to actively engaging with the content they are learning.
